Welcome to the Summer of 2022 KeyLIME “re run” series! Over the summer months, we will be re-releasing some of our earliest episodes: Give some old favorites a listen or discover some episodes from our archive you may not have heard yet!

This week, in summer re run #13... we grapple with some big questions in our rerun of Episode 168: Good news about bad news: see one, reflect on one, learn more. Breaking bad news is a challenging task even for experienced practicing physicians, even more so for trainees. How did you learn to break bad news? Do you do it well? How can we all do better?

Karnieli-Miller, O et al. See, Reflect, Learn more: Qualitative Analysis of Breaking Bad News Reflective Narratives. Medical Education. 2018;52(5):497-512.
